About the MRI

Our unique indicator: the Bestinvest Manager Record Index (MRI)
measures the likelihood that the fund manager is adding value through their decisions.
It is based on their performance record over the course of their career, adjusted
for the amount of risk taken. MRI is an important contributor to our fund rating
system but it is also vital to take account of qualitative factors. It is also very
important to select funds to form a cohesive portfolio with an appropriate overall
risk level.

The value of your investment can go down as well as up, and you can get back less than you originally invested.

Past performance or any yields quoted should not be considered reliable indicators of future returns. Restricted advice can be provided as part of other services offered by Bestinvest, upon request and on a fee basis. Before investing in funds please check the specific risk factors on the key features document or refer to our risk warning notice as some funds can be high risk or complex; they may also have risks relating to the geographical area, industry sector and/or underlying assets in which they invest.
